Spotted a powerful,white R32 GTR sporting shiny new R34 GTR rims,looking schmick! Reminded me of someones 'Zilla that had white 3 spoke rims on it...LOL!

Also spotted a silver R33 4 door having a pathetic attempt at lighting it up out of the roundabout in front of my work in Fyshwick...sounded more like clutch slip than tyres breaking traction. Dark haired young fella driving:anyone on here? Not that he'll put his hand up now I've made disparaging remarks on his driving abilities...Now that he's been sprung,I'd suggest getting his butt and his car to a trackday to practice getting the tail out!

you got 34 gtr rims mmmm tasty silver or gold also do they fit fine without any gaurd rolling on the 32

The goldy-bronze colour, not the flat silver (although in some light they look silver). Should have some pics up soon :rofl: Yep they fit fine and sit in there quite nicely.

Would that have anything to do with the ride height being that of a landcruiser? :confused:

Just jokes! I love those rims dude. Did you get the centre caps with them? I only ask because mosts sets sold here are missing the caps.

Haha it is lowered now, has been for a while. Trying to get dodgy phone pics, but my bluetooth adapter on computer doesnt want to play anymore.

Yep, centre caps and all :cheers:

That R33 4door, was it 2 tone silver on grey by any chance?

I think I might know who it was...

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
